AMERICAN MUSCLE will always have a special place in my heart. Via that project I learned a lot about writing for more than one person at the same time (which I was fairly new to) and the actual shoot was like the movie itself; unique, and full on rock and roll! I doubt I’ll ever live another shoot like it; so many lessons and good and f-ed up memories!

Like living in the desert for a month, the wild scenery (that Jesus park was nuts) and that mountain I used to hike all the time to try to keep in some kind of shape. Or that time I was sure I gave myself a concussion doing a stunt but kept it on the DL and just popped some Tylenol and kept at it. Or that other time when I did a scene with Todd Farmer with a sock on my privates while my balls flapped wildly up and down. Or that day that was all about Nick Principe kicking my ass left, right and center (was a blast)! I can go on and on, but I will stop right there. All that to say, it was a truly a novel and eventful shoot with a bunch of great people.

Now the film recently gunned the web with a crazy trailer and a cool ass poster, you can see that here. Hookers and beers to director Ravi Dhar for the unique, unhinged and Lynch-ish (IMO anyways) vision he brought to what is at the end of the day, an extreme 70’s – 80’s esque exploitation revenge flick and to producer Travis Stevens for busting his ass to make sure this flick came out as good as it could be. And of course a huge high five and hit (yes I just said that with a straight face) to the cast, the producers and the crew who went all out and then some to make this film happen. Filmmaking is a team sport and on this show we had a solid group that stuck together through thick and thin. So props to all! And yeah the trailer f-ing owns! I love it!

Last year I wrote and acted in (I play a mute psycho named “Tongues”) the trippy and brutal revenge flick AMERICAN MUSCLE and you’ll be hearing more about the project this year. For starters check out its IMDb page HERE and here’s the basic plot line:
